Well positioned within walking distance of the restaurants of Umhlanga. Adequate parking on site, a nice little room and well presented breakfast.

Bed was a little small but comfy. Nothing else. All round a lovely stay

"Great"

10.0

All staff were very friendly and helpful. We could walk to the the beach, nice restaurants, shopping mall..etc. Garden was beautiful and it was nice and relaxing to sit outside.

We satyed at the first floor, so it was bit hard to carry down and up our suitcases.

"Fabulous stay. Highly recommended."

10.0

The staff, especially Tabeta (sorry spelling is probably incorrect) were amazing. Nothing was too much trouble. The property was spotlessly clean. The bed was super comfy. The breakfast was fabulous, especially the omelette! The location was within a 5/7 min walk of local bars and restaurants. Would highly recommend.

Nothing. This place is first class!

"Comfortable and pleasant"

Lovely decorated. Curtesy bar and in a lovely setting.

I would prefer a fan instead of a sitcom in the room. Not any fresh air in the room as there is no privacy if heavy curtains are not drawn.
